The Kate Middleton baby watch is nearing its end as Duchess Kate reaches her estimated due date and prepares for the arrival of Baby No. 2, and it appears that she has dropped some hints as to the gender of her baby.

While the royal family never officially announced a due date for Kate, it’s widely believed that she is due in the latter half of the month of April. Judging by the amount of preparations taking place already in Britain for the baby to arrive, it appears that Duchess Kate’s due date could be at any time.

This week there has been a ton of preparation for the new royal baby, with Kate and Prince William getting ready for the arrival and their hospital clearing the way. This week St. Mary’s Hospital in London put up no parking signs outside the Lindo Wing, where Kate will be delivering the baby. The restrictions last from April 15 to April 30, confirming that Kate’s due date may be coming at any time.

But, in all the preparations, it appears that Kate Middleton may have dropped a big hint about the baby’s gender. Hollywood Life reported:

One thing being prepped is the baby’s room. The duke and duchess have stated they are unaware of the child’s gender, just like with Prince George, but huge speculation has come about after Kate reportedly bought pink paint. Oxford inteshwell as her prep, Kate was spotted looking through the little girl’s section of the children’s boutique Amaia, according to People. The store’s co-owner Segolene Tresca said, “She was looking at all the girls’ clothing. She was very interested.”

While Kate Middleton hasn’t given anything about either about the baby’s gender or due date, friends say she is more than ready for the little one to come. A source close to Duchess Kate told Us Weekly that she is fully feeling the effects of the third trimester.

“Kate’s starting to feel really pregnant,” the source said. “She’s been joking about never passing up an opportunities to use the loo!”

But those looking to Kate Middleton for hints about the due date or gender may be reading too much into it. Sources close to Kate and William say that neither of them know the sex of their baby, and won’t find out until the royal baby makes his or her arrival sometime later this month.
